U.S. May Have Committed War Crime In Sinking Of Iranian Ship The Geneva Conventions say nations have a duty to “take all possible measures” to help rescue victims of shipwrecks. A U.S. submarine left that to Sri Lanka.

“The 312-foot Dena and its 130-member crew, many of them musicians in the Iranian navy band, had just finished participating in an Indian government naval exercise and cultural exchange that the U.S. Navy had also participated in and were on the way home on Wednesday.”

Himes: I have a theory on how this ends…

You’re going to see oil go across $100… Projections for economic growth are going to go down.

And at some point in 3-5 weeks, the president is going to say this is really not tenable. And he’s going to declare victory and walk away.

Between the decline in employment in February and the downward revision to December, job growth has now effectively slowed to zero. #numbersday

🚨 This is from FBI interview #2 by the FBI of the woman who was 13-15 when she said Donald Trump sexually assaulted her.

If Hillary can be subpoenaed, then Trump who knew Epstein and appears countless times in the files, must appear before Oversight.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.

But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

I'm sure Lewandowski, committed to the department, will remain as a close adviser to Mullin.

How odd that so many military veterans who saw their friends get killed in the last stupid in the Middle East feel compelled to speak out against this stupid war in the Middle East.

[WARNING: This is a bit graphic.]

A Marine Corps veteran protesting Trump’s War on Iran had his arm broken by Capitol Police and GOP Senator Tim Sheehy. It appears to be a compound fracture.

Every single one of us would have understood it if @crockett.house.gov had remained in Texas for a while after putting everything she had into her Senate campaign. Taken some time to recover, rest, and heal. She's earned it.

And instead she's right back at work in DC today. For all of us. Wow.

Trump’s War on Iran Could Screw Over US Farmers The Middle East supplies a huge amount of the world’s fertilizer. Conflict in the region has sent prices soaring ahead of the critical spring planting season.

there's a lot going on right now but did you know a massive amount of the world's fertilizer flows through the middle east, and did you know that that fertilizer needs to be shipped to the us *right now* for planting season, and uh did you know we are at war with iran

"Mark Levin, the rightwing radio host, has demanded critics of the war, such as Mehdi Hasan, the British-American broadcaster, be deported. He has also denounced California Democratic senator Adam Schiff as “the enemy within” and called Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib a “Marxist-Islamist psycho”."

Playbook screenshot 

“Most Hill Republicans remain supportive in public — and Republican leadership expects to win the war powers vote in the Senate this afternoon. But privately, we’re hearing a very different story. “Most Republicans want clear objectives, clearer than they are now,” one worried House Republican tells POLITICO’s Meredith Lee Hill. Another says the president’s rationale “sounds a little bit like President Lyndon Johnson going into Vietnam.”

Republican strategists are equally worried. “I have no problem blowing up the Iranians,” one close to the White House tells Dasha. “But when you're at war, that is 75 percent of your time. This is what Susie [Wiles] is gonna be doing, this is what James Blair will be doing. This is what senior staff will be dealing with. And that is a problem.”

Ticking clock: “It needs to get over quick, otherwise this is a f--king nightmare. It already is a nightmare, because you’ve got the MAGA coalition just tearing at the seams. Anything in a game of subtraction right now is f--king disastrous. Anything that we do that hurts our own base … is catastrophic … They need to explain to the American people, [and] they need, frankly, to do it pretty quickly. And specifically to the Republican base.””

It's weird that we all just KNOW that more progressive members of Congress will make a bigger deal out of these facts that constitute a HUGE political opportunity for Democrats.

Spine lefties will be more POPULARIST than Josh "Microsoft/AIPAC" Gottheimer and others like him.

Republicans have caused total chaos in Dallas County. It's instructive.

Whether or not Trump attempts some sort of executive order to nationalize election administration, Republicans have an endless number of paths to create absolute mayhem in November.
